All in Diamond bank, at 1.64 get ready to drop, because one of my good friend has collected the key from Peter to open some doors, Diamond might close today between 1.67/1.72.
They have seen to reach their bottom today.

But prayers of those that received hair cut, might drag them down to 1.40/1.50.

I really don't know what's giving you all these ginger . Are you that heavy here? HOPE, if not managed properly, can lead to something else.

dipoolowoo:
That has always been my philosophy. Falling stock price is good news to smart buyers so far the stock has good potentials.

If your money is ready to buy when a particular stocks has bottom out.
But if your already in the car, which crash is ongoing, and ended up opening the door for you when it has bottomed out, tell me how smart you will outsmart the market.
Some bought Diamond bank today @ 1.64, thinking that it will stop there, but the wishes of those who has their hands burnt in Diamond bank, still want the stock to surge more.
Bear in Diamond bank might drink water tomorrow at 1.4/1.5, then decide which way forward. Either to hand over to bull/ car park, or it might decide to carry on.

One of my friend collected key to rescue those in the bus, only to found out that the increase in volume was still ongoing

The 2019 presidential election is approaching!

Those who are conversant with the happenings of the Nigerian stock exchange know what I mean!!

Don't Forget History!!!

The heat will not be much, don't be afraid. Heat will only come after the election, if the incumbent President losses out. After the hand over, which is 29 May 2019, change of Government will then affect the market. This coming election don't have inter tribal/ sectional tension, therefore it is not coming with tension.
Just position yourself in good stocks, because final year result will usher in bull, which will take place some months before the handover.

In my personal development journey, I learned these lessons from a great mentor about The Seasons of Life. Hopefully it might inspire someone out here. Excuse the lengthy post

Life and business are like the changing seasons. That’s one of the best ways to illustrate life: it’s like the seasons that change. The second phrase is that You cannot change the seasons, but you can change yourself. Now with those two key phrases in mind, let’s turn to what I consider to be the four major lessons in life to learn. To also bring this home: Consider the ‘Winter Season’ as Bear Season and the ‘Spring Season’ as Bull Season.

1. The first lesson is this: learn how to handle the winters. They come regularly, right after autumn. Some are long, some are short, some are difficult, some are easy, but they always come right after autumn. That is never going to change.
There are all kinds of winters–the “winter” when you can’t figure it out, the “winter” when everything seems to go haywire. One writer called it “the winter of discontent.” There are economic winters, social winters, personal winters when your heart is smashed into a thousand pieces. Wintertime brings disappointment, and disappointment is common to all of us. So learn how to handle the winters.
You must learn how to handle the nights; they come right after days. You must learn how to handle difficulty; it always comes after opportunity. You must learn to handle recessions; they come right after expansions. You must learn how to handle bears; they come right after the bulls. That isn’t going to change.
The big question is, what do you do about winters? You can’t get rid of January simply by tearing it off the calendar. But here is what you can do: you can get stronger; you can get wiser; and you can get better. Let winter find you planning for the arrival of spring, not contemplating the errors of commission and omission of last year. Let winter find you with a joyful countenance and a happy heart... with a good word for all those around you; with confidence in the future, not apprehension; with appreciation of the past, not regret; and finally, with gratitude for your achievements, adversities, and uncertainties of life. The physically inactive season of winter is a time for adding to our storehouse of knowledge through continued education, which in truth does not mean learning things that we do not know, but in learning to behave as we do not now behave. Someone once said — “Don’t pray for things to be easier, rather, pray for more obstacles and more challenges, for it is out of these that man’s character and will to succeed are formed.” Nearly every success story that I am aware of began when the person first lay flat on his mental and financial back. In this condition, people usually become sufficiently disgusted to reach deep down inside and pull out talents, abilities, desire, and determination—the basic essentials required of anyone wishing for things to get better. It is in the face of adversity that things begin to change, and the “things” always change as a result of the personal change that takes place.

2. Here is the second major lesson in life: learn how to take advantage of the spring. Spring is opportunity. And spring always follows winter. Spring in stock market investment represents the 'Bull' season
What a great place for spring–right after winter. If you were going to put it somewhere, that would be the place to put it. God is a genius.
Days follow nights. Opportunity follows difficulty. Expansion follows recession. Bulls follow Bears. And this all happens with regularity. You can count on it.
However, the mere arrival of spring is no sign that things are going to look good in the fall. You must do something with the spring. In fact, everyone has to get good at one of two things: planting in the spring or begging in the fall. So take advantage of the day, take advantage of the opportunity, and read every book you can get your hands on to learn how to take advantage of the spring.
Get busy quickly on your springs, your opportunities. There are just a handful of springs that have been handed to each of us. Life is brief, even at its longest. Whatever you are going to do with your life, get at it. Don’t just let the seasons pass by...to be continued

The way Mr. MARKET is dealing with CP rightnow

UPL is highly illiquid. It makes absolutely no sense buying illiquid stocks.

CP don enter am with Peter
Make Mr. Market please tender justice with mercy make e no go wound am, we wey dey like handouts go hear am wella

cp is good but follow cp at your own peril.

locodemy:


cp is good but follow cp at your own peril.

CP points out good stocks about to breakout, CP does not regulate individual greed!
Peter recommend stocks about to reverse sharply.....

They are two opposite poles of a bipolar magnet...?

Both are good at what they do, but peter is not aware he is good at the opposite of what he does...?

Without the both,Loco is incomplete here.

This peter gets mouth o.
I can't keep laughing

locodemy:

Hahaaa, I no gree. CP will not recommend a stock and people will still be waiting for him to tell them to sell. Whether na dem make he stop to dey ring bell self or whether they steal am sha, I no know.
Like Ichimoku rightly said (wetin that name mean self ), he cannot regulate people's greed. Some, if not many have followed his predictions and it paid off. We should remember that nobody knows it all in this market.
CP carry go, nothing do you jare.

U are not alone brother, but when I see d price of fcmb, I always believe their must be green light at the end of the tunnel. Its only a matter of time. Zenith bank too was also punished like this after release of result and mark down b4 bounce back. Moreover some folks here predicted fidelity is going to 3 to 5 after release of the FY17 result but then may be Mr market wants to take it to 2 naira first b4 resuming its journey to 3.

This market can be something else really. Just moving in opposite direction of the good news and indications. Anyway, it wouldnt go on for long I believe.
In my opinion, I think people should not panic-sell their holdings especially if it has lost much value till the bulls return. I learnt here that money is not yet lost until you sell. It is well o.

This is why TA is important.
TA helps you study traders behavior in the market.

The more low, Zen and Fide go, more better their PE become.
Which of one these three will attain Kilometer 20/50 in both shot and long term, and is good to make 90% portfolio.
